What Could I Expect from a Procedure?

Treatment sessions with Pico lasers are often short, but they will vary based on the condition and area treated. The sensation of using a laser is often comparable to the snapping of a rubber band, but a local anesthetic may be available for your additional comfort.

You should be able to return to your normal daily activities in New York following your treatment with Pico lasers. There is no downtime associated with the procedure, but you may notice some minor redness. It is important to remember results will vary for each person, laser, and condition, but most conditions will require a short series of treatments to help address and clear your pigmentation concern. Our team can help you determine the best treatment plan for you.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Most people seeking a laser treatment to address a pigmentation concern could benefit from a session with Pico lasers. The effectiveness may vary based on skin tone and type, and it will differ based on treatment with WonTech PICOCARE or Lutronic PicoPlus technology. However, a consultation with our team in New York can help you determine which of these lasers could be right for you and your goals.
